A custom "Bot" Bar that we were recently commissioned to design and build. Everyone is thrilled with the results. This was designed to be a functional bar. It is comfortable to stand at and you can sit on the bar stools without banging your knees into the hull side. The counter top is solid copper which looks great next to the curved mahogany bar rail.

This 1966 Riva Super Ariston is in the shop for finish work and light restoration. The stain coloring is uneven and is the incorrect color. The finish will be removed and the factory-correct stain and finish will be applied.

1955 is the first model year for the revolutionary Century Coronado and this is the earliest example still known to be in existence. Hull M5553 is in the shop for a complete restoration. When completed she will make her home on Lake Wawasee, Indiana.

The 19' Barrel Racer was designed and built by The Wooden Runabout Co. in 2015. It is inspired by the rare Chris-Craft special race boats of the 1930's. Built with the assistance of our in-house CNC router, the 19' barrel racer has a level of precision rarely seen in wooden boats. Power comes from a Ford 302 V8 with Holman Moody exhaust manifolds. While this boat surely looks good, it needs to be driven to be fully appreciated.
The 19' Barrel Racer recently earned a Platinum award at the ACBS International Boat Show at Gull Lake, Minnesota.

Ogopogo is a 1976 Century Coronado that we customized for our own use on Lake Michigan. Unique features include a wrap around wood windshield, integrated swim platform, and inlaid wood deck. Ogopogo was recently sold and now calls the Les Cheneaux Islands region home.

A rare 1961 finned Continental with Gull-Wing hardtop. Virtually all planking is original including the bottom. We returned the interior to original specifications and preformed some paint and varnish work.

This extremely rare model 99 was brought to us to wrap up an extensive restoration. We fabricated missing hardware, applied the final coats of varnish, and completed the upholstery and mechanical work.
